Identifying & Building Leadership CapabilityOpicGroup
With the aim of getting as many different perspectives as possible, we have
compared the literature and the vast amount of data available on organisational development and leadership. This whitepaper outlines research undertaken to identify the common capabilities (defined as a combination of attributes and traits that lead to sustainable behaviour) for executive roles.

By Dr. Rashid Alleem
The document discusses team leadership. It defines team leadership as the leadership practices and values exhibited by leaders governing a group working towards a common goal. It states that a team cannot function without effective leadership providing governance, authority, and interaction. The role of the team leader is crucial as they facilitate processes, tasks, relationships, and help the team achieve its goals and priorities. It also lists characteristics of effective team leaders such as strong communication skills, the ability to develop people and inspire them, and time management skills. The document outlines different leadership styles appropriate for different stages in a team's development and discusses advantages like conflict resolution and maintaining momentum, and disadvantages such as unequal participation and potential group isolation.
This document outlines an effective team bonding activity with the objectives of improving cultural understanding between the Malaysia and China teams, understanding personalities, and upgrading communication skills. The activity includes sharing achievements and expectations, a personality test, cultural profiles, communication styles training, appreciation notes, and identifying individual and departmental strengths. Key learning points are cultural awareness, communication styles, listening skills, and knowing team members. Approaches include appreciative inquiry, presentations, and personality assessments.
This document discusses various topics related to leadership, including:
1. It defines leadership as the ability to inspire confidence and support among people to achieve organizational goals. Effective leadership requires a partnership between leaders and followers based on shared purpose, accountability, and honesty.
2. Research shows that transactional leadership has little impact on performance while charismatic and transformational leadership can positively impact performance, especially in uncertain environments.
3. Leadership qualities include traits, motives, roles, and characteristics. Effective followers also demonstrate traits like self-management, commitment, competence, courage, and critical thinking.
4. Theories of leadership include trait, behavioral, contingency, path-goal, leader-member exchange, and
This document discusses group dynamics and teamwork in organizations. It covers topics like what motivates people to join groups, different types of groups, functions of formal groups, Tuckman's model of group development in 5 stages, and factors that influence group structure and processes like roles, norms, size, and cohesiveness. The document also examines group decision-making techniques, characteristics of high-performance teams, and ways to evaluate group effectiveness.
This is a quick overview of team leadership. It does not go into alot of detail, it is mainly a "What is Team Leadership All About Anyway" type of presentation.
The integrated leadership development approach represents a more strategic, synergistic, and sustainable way for organizations to build leadership capacity compared to traditional single-solution or multiple-solution approaches. It requires developing a comprehensive leadership development strategy, connecting development to business challenges, and employing options like assessments, coaching, learning, and experiences in a blended and emergent manner aligned with organizational culture and the leadership lifecycle. This intensive approach better ensures investments in leadership development optimize value for the organization and competitive advantage.
This document discusses different theories on the nature and development of leadership. It explores whether leaders are born or made, outlining theories on innate traits versus learned skills and styles. The document also examines levels of leadership from the individual to society, influential factors, and mainstream concepts like transactional leadership, transformational leadership, and situational leadership. Specific leadership models are mentioned, such as situational leadership theory, the managerial grid, servant leadership, and level 5 leadership.
1) Team coaching has grown significantly in recent years as a way to improve team performance and leadership.
2) The authors define systemic team coaching as working with a team both together and apart to improve collective
performance, how they work together, and their leadership in engaging stakeholders to transform the business.
3) They propose five disciplines of effective teams: commissioning, clarifying, co-creating, connecting, and core
learning. Systemic team coaching addresses all five disciplines and how they connect.
Self-directed work teams (SDWTs) complete entire work processes with autonomy over tasks. For high performance, SDWTs must be primary work units with collective self-regulation and control over variances, balanced with technical systems. Sociotechnical systems theory identifies these conditions but not optimal alignment. SDWTs face barriers from supervisors fearing loss of power and employees lacking skills. Virtual teams link members across boundaries using technology for tasks. They require structured tasks, varied communication, and face-to-face meetings for development.
Professor Peter Hawkins discusses the need for collective leadership to rise to current challenges. He emphasizes that learning must equal or exceed the rate of environmental change for organizations to survive. Sustainable change requires aligning strategy, change, culture and leadership. High performing teams excel through clarifying their mission, co-creating solutions both internally and with stakeholders, and engaging in continuous learning. Building partnerships also demands a shared compelling vision of what groups can achieve together that they cannot apart.
Managing conflict in cross functional and virtual teams. power pointah188668
This document discusses managing conflict in cross-functional and virtual teams. It defines cross-functional teams as groups with complementary skills working toward a common goal, and virtual teams as geographically dispersed groups that use technology to accomplish tasks. Managing conflict is important for team performance. Sources of conflict include differences in space, time, culture and organization between virtual team members. Providing a shared understanding, structured coaching and feedback can help virtual teams succeed. Temporal coordination mechanisms can weaken the negative effects of avoidance behavior on team performance.
The document discusses shared leadership, defining it as distributing authority, responsibility, and accountability more broadly across an organization. It describes shared leadership existing on a spectrum from leader-led models to ones where many people exercise leadership as appropriate. Shared leadership can help organizations address adaptive challenges by developing leadership capacity in many. The benefits include a more empowered and engaged staff, improved decision-making, and a deeper leadership bench. Challenges include the significant time and financial commitment required.
The document discusses the differences between management and leadership based on responses from various contributors on the website Linked2Leadership.com. Management is described as focusing on efficiency, tasks, processes, and reducing risks, while leadership is described as focusing on vision, inspiration, influence, and pursuing opportunities. Effective organizations are said to value both management and leadership working together, with managers implementing plans and leaders setting the direction.
The document discusses high-performing teams and how to build leadership quotient. It provides an agenda for a meeting that will cover topics like ideal team size, diversity versus good chemistry, the importance of pairs, how brain structure relates to teams, managing change and maneuverability, and team lifecycles. The document advocates that team design must work with brain structures and provide the support needed for teams to reach their full potential. It also notes that teams must be capable of surviving significant changes in today's economy and that humans adapt more slowly than technology.
This document discusses definitions of leadership and the differences between leadership and management. It defines leadership as the ability to influence and motivate followers to achieve a shared vision while maintaining morale and ethics. Management involves planning, budgeting, and problem-solving. While managers can lead, leadership requires inspiring vision and change. Effective leaders display traits like expertise, initiative and responsibility. The document examines various leadership theories and styles. It also discusses applying leadership principles in organizational contexts through systems thinking and change management.

POST 1:
Networking: A key to successful Teamwork
A. Consider the different teams presented in your reading assignment. How do these teams manage their team boundaries? What are the trade-offs between internal cohesion and external ties within each type of team? support your discussion with at least two external sources.
Teams are of different types such as Virtual teams, Problem-solving teams, cross-functional teams, self- managed teams but every team has to maintain their own boundaries to function up to the mark.
What are boundaries
Boundaries are the limitations, plans which meant for reducing distraction from outside sources and to increase the teams focus on their roles and responsibilities. They could be simple rules which are a part of the teams’ principles.
How to set boundaries
· Members need to work individually along with their team leader. Everyone of them need to understand as to what make them deviate from their works. Make a list of the important activities relating to their group project for which the team is formed and make a schedule by prioritizing their work according to their importance.
· This will help them to have an understanding of how to manage their work. Set short term and long-term goals so as to be responsible for completing the tasks.
· Remember that the boundaries can be breached. It is not possible that they will stay in place forever, sometimes the members may knowingly or unknowingly cross their boundaries.
· The team has to communicate with the other teams or members as to what extent they have set the boundaries. It will help them to have necessary support from others and they will be less disturbing to them (Guanfeng, & Zhiyang, 2011).
Internal cohesion and External ties
Internal cohesion has a positive relationship with the external ties. The level of internal cohesion defines the level of support and cooperation the members have with each other. If the cohesion is more it will not affect the members to outsource other expertise and necessary resources. B ...

The most common challenges faced by nonprofit leadership teams are: 1) Lack of a big picture perspective, as team members tend to focus narrowly on their specific programs or functions rather than the organization as a whole. 2) Lack of shared direction, priorities, goals and values across the team, which is foundational for effectiveness. 3) Poor performance not being addressed and individuals lacking necessary competencies, which negatively impacts morale, trust and effectiveness. Developing a big picture view, creating shared strategic plans with measurable goals, and ensuring accountability can help teams overcome these challenges.

- Characteristics of effective teams include interdependent effort, personal accountability, and utilizing each member's talents.
- Cross-functional teams are comprised of employees from different work areas at similar levels who work together on tasks.
- The stages of group development are forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning.
- Diversity on teams increases creativity by bringing multiple perspectives, but can also increase the time spent discussing issues due to differing viewpoints.
- Reward systems for teams should encourage cooperation over competition or individualism.
The document discusses various challenges of leadership, including managing culturally diverse teams, the need for a global mindset, and dealing with increased complexity in the global business environment. It notes that effective leadership requires skills like cultural learning and adaptation to influence groups from different backgrounds.

Discussion #1
Discuss the varied challenges faced by leaders or managers concerning teams made of a diverse workforce. Include considerations such as how some team members might be from different countries or how the teams might meet virtually.
Undoubtedly, globalization has made the diversification of the workforce unavoidable. People with specialties across the world are employed to perform specific functions for organizations. And all these people come together to work as team members. Thus, a team might be composed of employees from within and virtual, and they all perform their functions with different temperaments and attitudes. Gross (2002) described a virtual team as a group who performs its work mostly through electronic technology. Matthews-Joy & Gladstone (2000) added that because the virtual members may be detached both geographically and organizationally, they rely on technology for task-related communication.
One of the challenges is lack of face-to-face interaction. Frequently, leaders and team members cannot depend on voice levels, smiles, and raised eyebrows to ascertain understanding because they rely on technology. There is the need for reliable technological communication strategies to control the situation (Wilson, 2003). It is imperative for leaders to encourage members to be sensitized to the importance of this barrier and how to address it. Another issue is virtual members forming trusting working relationships via technological alone. The challenge is technology not viable in the underdeveloped and developing countries. Therefore, such virtual meetings are mostly chaotic.
For instance, in Ghana, sometimes in the course of working on your assignment, the power goes off. I had it very tough when I started the program. In fact, I had to acquire an inverter to store energy for use when the power went off. Other times it may not be a power problem but the inability to access the Internet. According to Duarte & Snyder (2001), leaders must endeavor to watch members keenly in support of creating positive interpersonal relationships. One other challenge is to be precise about the specialties of members to attain the goal of the organization (Anderson & Shane, 2002). The World Report on Disa ...
This document discusses principles of effective leadership according to Peter F. Drucker. It covers various leadership theories including trait theory, behavioral theory, and transformational leadership. Transformational leaders are able to inspire and motivate followers to achieve higher goals. They provide vision, inspire commitment to change, and empower followers. Effective leaders focus on continuous self-improvement, serving the community, and achieving results through effective planning and accountability.
Power Base and LeadershipBritish historian of late 19th century,.docxChantellPantoja184
Power Base and Leadership
British historian of late 19th century, (Acton, 1887) said that "power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely," suggesting that a person's sense of morality lessens as his or her power increases. Do you agree? Considering this idea, is it ethical for leaders to try to increase their power? Is all power the same or are there different power bases and different corresponding influence techniques? How does the use of power impact the leader-follower relationship?
Choose any organization and describe the power base(s) in that organization. What types of techniques do leaders in use to influence team behavior in that organization? How does the leaders' approach affect team relationships? As a leader, how would you use power in your relationships with team members and why?

Be sure to review your reading to understand the concept of leadership power bases. One of the more popular works in this area was conducted by social psychologists John French and Bertram Raven, in 1959. They identified five bases of power:
Enjoy Learning about Types of Leadership Powe.
The document discusses the five levels of leadership. Level one is leadership from position, where people follow due to one's job title and authority. Level two is leadership by permission, where people follow due to respect and trust. Level three is leadership by production, where people follow due to what one has done for the organization. Level four is leadership by people development, where people follow due to what one has done for them personally and professionally. Level five is leadership by personhood, where people follow due to who one is and what one represents.

Overview
Write a minimum of two pages in which you analyze how an organization can use ground rules and dialogue to grow as a learning organization.
The team learning discipline helps a team sustain and reinforce its learning, and increases the capacity to act synergistically and learn how to learn. Dialogue is a fundamental skill in the discipline of team learning, and is essential to the effective practice of the other learning disciplines. Dialogue makes meaningful, shared vision building possible. It makes systemic insight possible by facilitating reflection and inquiry in work groups. Consequently, it is important to understand the value and nature of dialogue, and how it differs from other forms of conversation.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
· Competency 1: Apply change management interventions.
. Define and compare debate, discussion, and dialogue.
. Analyze the value of dialogue in helping teams learn and change.
. Describe the ground rules required to reach conversational level in a dialogue.
. Analyze learning related to designing an effective dialogue session.
. Analyze the ease or difficulty of conversing in a team dialogue session, including the dangers and obstacles.
Context
Learning teams develop ground rules for truth telling, time usage, decision-making processes, and domains; to create a safe conversational environment that allows a team to take risks, make mistakes, forgive, and recover. This assessment provides you an opportunity to analyze the elements of skillful dialogue in a learning team, increasing the ability to problem solve, create new knowledge, deliberate, and build relationships with other teams and customers.
Questions to Consider
To deepen your understanding, you are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of the business community.
· Review The Ladder of Inference multimedia piece in the Resources. Consider the meaning of this concept and your experience using it. What suggestions do you have for self-improvement when using it next time? How might the ladder of inference apply to communication within an organization? How might it diminish effectiveness in terms of organizational learning? Can dialogue play a useful role? If so, how?
· Consider how dialogue can allow ostensibly conflicting allegiances or differences (for example, unionized labor and management) while allowing an organization to learn as a common entity.
Suggested Resources
The following optional resources are provided to support you in completing the assessment or to provide a helpful context. For additional resources, refer to the Research Resources and Supplemental Resources in the left navigation menu of your courseroom.

coworkers.

How could you encourage someone to continue to voice his or her
opinion or to share an idea when you know she is hesitant to do so?
